5 Home Office Must-Haves for the Working Mom

Working from home is a dream for many moms. It allows you to be there for your kids during the day and still get your work done. But it’s not always easy to set up a functional home office. Here are five must-haves for any working mom who wants to make the most of her at-home workspace.

#1 A comfortable chair that supports your back

The last thing you want is to be dealing with a backache on top of everything else. So make sure your chair is comfortable and offers good support. If you don’t have a lot of space, look for a compact chair that can tuck under your desk when not in use. And if you’re going to be sitting for long periods of time, consider an ergonomic chair that will help reduce the risk of pain or injury. Just be sure to get some chair glides so your floors aren’t damaged while working!

#2 A desk that’s big enough to fit all of your supplies

You might be tempted to go for a smaller desk to save space, but that can end up being more of a hindrance than a help. A too-small desk will leave you feeling cramped and make it difficult to spread out your work. So instead, opt for a desk that’s large enough to fit all of your supplies comfortably.

If you don’t have a lot of space, try a corner desk or an L-shaped desk that can fit snugly into an empty nook. And if you really want to maximize your space, look for a desk with built-in storage. That way, you can keep all of your essentials close at hand without taking up valuable real estate on your desktop.

#3 A good lamp to help you see what you’re working on

If you’re going to be spending a significant amount of time working at your desk, you’ll need a good lamp to help you see what you’re doing. Natural light is best, of course, but if you don’t have a lot of windows in your home office, a quality desk lamp can make all the difference. Look for a lamp with an adjustable arm so you can direct the light where you need it most. And make sure the bulb is bright enough to illuminate your entire work surface.

#4 Storage space to keep your office organized

An organized office is a productive office. And one of the best ways to keep your office organized is to have plenty of storage space. Invest in some shelves or cabinets to store away any paperwork or supplies that you don’t need on a daily basis. That way, your desk will stay clear and clutter-free, and you’ll always know where to find what you’re looking for.

And if you’re short on space, look for creative storage solutions that can help you make the most of what you have. For example, stackable boxes, hanging organizers, and even wall-mounted baskets can all be great options for a small home office.

#5 A calendar or planner to help you stay on top of deadlines

If you’re working from home, it’s more important than ever to have a calendar or planner to help you keep track of deadlines and appointments. Otherwise, it can be all too easy to let work slide and end up falling behind.

In conclusion, these are five must-haves for any working mom who wants to make the most of her at-home workspace. With these essentials, you’ll be able to create a functional and comfortable office that will help you get your work done.

SATURDAYS ARE FOR STELLA ❤️

Oh, hello there 👋 in case you’re new to my feed, this is Stella. She is an almost 3 year old goldendoodle from Stella, NC. No, we didn’t name her Stella because of the city she was born in. That was a complete coincidence!

She goes by many names - Stella, Stelladoodle, Stu Diddy, Stu, and Moose. Don’t ask 😂 (and whether she responds to any of those names is completely up to her.)

She’s finally graduating the puppy stages (I hope), but it is known that if you’re over and
👟you leave your shoes unattended

🏃‍♀️🏃🏃‍♂️you’ll be running circles around the house after her. Don’t say I didn’t warn you 😉

Today we celebrated the life of Heather McMechan, someone I am eternally grateful came into my life, and devastated has left this earth. The church was filled with people that loved her - not one person that crossed her path couldn’t NOT love her. 

Forever in my heart ❤️
